I like the sound of that considering I don’t think we’ve had a team quite as good as the 2016 team since then. And, yes, I know we won the national championship in 2017, but I’d take the 2016 team over the 2017 team in a head-to-head matchup.

Some random thoughts:
* Bogavac looks like he makes a big difference for this team off the bench, TBD what happens if he and Stevenson switch starting/bench roles - offense/defense trade-off
* Bogavac looked like he got gassed late in the first half and never really got it back; maybe the adrenaline rush of getting cleared at the lat second deserted him
* Zayden High had a rough game - big dropoff on both sides of the ball when he subbed in for Veesaar tonight, but presumably the kid needs time to work off the rust
* Evan’s needs an extra beat to get off his three point shot but it certainly looked good tonight
* Luka’s three point release is pure but he only went 1-5 per the box score (I swear I thought he hit more than one, I may have thought one of Evan’s threes was Luka).
* Luka’s defense was not so great
* Dixon brings decent defense off the bench and he and Powell play hard, but seems like a we have a noticeable gap between the top 6 players and the next 3 from the bench rotation
*Veesaar has soft hands catching the ball and looks good passing from the top of the key, but he is not strong against contact on rebounds oriented against the heavy-set defender Cark had
* Seth had a quiet 12 points

On Luka's defense, I think he is crafty and has good hands. He may get beat from time to time, but he also will run players into bad situations and pick a few pockets along the way.

We (entire team) had more dunks in this one game than in all the games combined last season.

26 bench points.
When’s the last time that happened?

I like your ritmos threads… can we get a separate thread for each game moving forward? Instead of tagging a new game onto this original thread - from last month?
Your ritmos threads look to be the official game threads on this board and it’s gonna get to be a mess if they’re all squeezed on to this one.
Pretty please?

I am good with that if others are as well.

I think James Brown should be the first sub for Veesaar
All I'll say about that is that at this time last year, I didn't think Lubin should ever see the court. Not saying you're wrong but you sure might be hasty.

Makes sense to me. We can lock up the prior Ritmo thread the day you post the new one.

I'm gonna say this right here - but I may make mention of it on another thread - screw Lubin. I mean, fuck him. Really. Guys like him are the reason the transfer portal literally sux. 4th team in 4 years?! Fuck him. That's ludicrous if not Lubincrous. I didn't neccessarily welcome him here last year - 3 teams in 3 seasons! To me, that was a huge red flag and I was hesitant to pull for him even though we desperately needed a big. (And yes, I know he came on stronger at the end last season). But to then transfer to one of (if not the) biggest in-state rivals? Fuck him. And while we're on the subject he SHOULDN'T have ever seen the court at this time last year! We all saw him play in November/December. He sucked. And regardless of pts and rebounds at lolstate this season, he sux now too! (Rant continued on another thread.)
